S5E12 - Best Games to Play When Homebound or Quarantined - “If Tom Nook wants to put me into debt at zero percent interest… I’ll take that”

In This Episode:

Void and Beej are homebound during the pandemic, just like most
people are. We talk about what we’ve been up to, what keeps
grabbing our interest, and what has been the best distraction
from the news of the world. 


For the most part, we figure that social games of some sort work.
We highly suggest Mario Kart of any kind. If you have access to
anything Mario Kart, its worth playing with others during this
time.


You could also play Mario Party, which has been a blast over the
internet for Beej. Final Fantasy XIV and World of Warcraft are
always good choices, and Beej is on FFXIV Leviathan server as
Lesser Wyrmsbane. Joe from Geektitude is on WoW, himself, but
you'd have to ask him how to find his character (@epicgrays on
Twitter).


We also touch on Luigi's Mansion 3, My Little Scythe (a good
intro to Eurogames, apparently), and Knighthood on iOS. Fun
stuff, really. I mean, we're all indoors, gotta do something.


Also, Animal Crossing New Horizons is amazing. Really
amazing.  And Void tries to convince BJ to give it a try.
The things you can do on the island are so chill and relaxing,
it's a fantastic way to spend a few hours while the outside world
is so stressful. Open your gates, have some friends over, and
just cross those animals. (Beej wrote this and doesn't understand
the game. You cross animals, right? Like Dr. Moreau? Because it's
on an Island this time? Get it? The Island of...ahhh, I give
up.)
